Yesterday was a beautiful day, and the Arts & Wine festival was great, albeit weak on the wine. We saw some awesome ideas on how we could frame pictures, something we may try as a next project.
We watched some Smallville, Justified, more Hell's Kitchen and
The Blind Side, which turned out much better than expected.
Our houseguest will be leaving again tomorrow, so this will be my 6th trip to the airport in the past week or so. At least I know that only a few errands stand between me and more movies,
Daybreakers and
When in Rome.

It was a little bit of a quiet day yesterday, with Europe mainly still in Easter holiday mode, but that should be changing again today, as of right ... now!
We've been making good headway on catching up on DVR stuff, as we watched Flashforward, 24 and Human Target. Yesterday we also checked out the latest ep. of The Pacific, and while it is not bad by a long shot, it is not nearly as good as Band of Brothers. It seems to be lacking the intensity as well as the character depth as BoB. So far, there seems to be no chemistry between any of the characters like
Maj. Richard D. Winters and
Capt. Lewis Nixon, for starters. We're not even halfway through the series, so hopefully the pacing picks up.
